Angels have the time...Sunday stealing

Welcome back to Sunday Stealing which originated on WTIT: The Blog authored by Bud Weiser. Here we will steal all types of memes from every corner of the blogosphere. Our promise to you is that we will work hard to find the most interesting and intelligent memes. You may have heard of the expression, “honor amongst thieves”. In that age-old tradition, we also have our rules. First, we always credit the blog that we stole it from and we will “fess up” to the blog owner where we stole the meme. We also provide a link to the victim's post. (It's our way of saying "Thanks!") We do sometimes edit the original meme, usually to make it more relevant to our global players, to challenge our players, sometimes to select that meme's best questions, or simply to make it less repetitive from either this new meme or recently asked questions from a prior featured meme.
Let's go!!!


From For Old Times' Sake 

The For Old Times' Sake Meme

When was the last time you swam in a pool?  Sadly so long ago that I can't recall just when.  I'm an ocean swimmer.

 Do you like to party?  Doesn't everyone?

Describe the shirt you're wearing?  I have on a long knit nightgown over a white silk turtleneck, and over that, is a sweater.

What is one feature film that you don't like?  I can name a genre I don't like.  I don't like futuristic warfare films populated by monsters, with metallic parts, who fly. Brrrr! I adored Star Wars and Star trek.

Would people describe you as happy?   I think they would.

Sleep with or without clothes on?   Hon,  I'm 71.  Those nekkid days are long gone.

Does it bother you if people swear around you?  I really don't like it much but I'll move rather than make an issue of it.  That is unless little kids are around.  I'll defend them against really grossly, foul language.

Do you prefer Wednesdays or Thursdays?  You can't have one with out the other, though I do wish that the week was an even numbered construction.  Why not 8 days?  That would mean three days off a week for busy people who never see their kids.  It could be the sports day.

Like to travel?   Yes, but on the ground.

Think you're attractive?  idon'tthinkso.... no no

Are or were you a good student?  Of course.  School was a way out of poverty in those days.

Are you currently happy?  Yes.  I'm feeling so much better now.

Colored or black-and-white photo?   I love both actually.  Both have their mystic and artistic quality.

Do you consider yourself the life of the party?   No.  I lurk along the shrubbery.

Do you drink? No, and that's why I'm not the life of a party. lol

Do you make fun of people?  No.  It's cruel, and my mother told me so.

Do you think dreams eventually come true?  No.  I think they change or adapt as people go along in life.

Favorite fictional character?  I loved Amarente, that crazy old man in Milagro.  Then, I watched John Malkovitch in "Red" - the guy who likes to blow things up.

Go to the movies or rent?  Netflix

Have you ever moved?  Of Course.  I'm 71.

Have you ever stolen anything?  Yes, when I was a kid I took something from a playmate.  I vowed that I would not steal anything again in my life.  It's just so unkind.

How's the weather right now? Sunny and clear but for three days we had rolling Squalls, the most beautiful weather on Earth.

Last time you cut your hair?  Last summer.  I'm letting it grow out long enough to be cut by someone else IF I decide they can be trusted with it.

Last person you talked to on the phone?  Our Fearless Leader of the ceramics club.  She regaled my about the time she had HER gallbladder out and was only down for four days AND she had it out the old fashioned way.  She was 23.  Duh!  Anyway, she is a riot.

Last time you showered?  This morning!  Gloriously Clean!

Loud or soft music?  Both!   I am a rocker at heart but love romantic slow songs and choral music especially Christmas time.  I love Classical music.  Music is something worth sticking around for.  That and animals, and family, too. come to think of it.  hehehe

McDonalds or Burger King?  ew!

Night or day?  I am happy now that I've gotten them straightened out, so I love them both.

Number of pillows?  About four, counting a body pillow which I LOVE!  Yes,  the screaming pink sort of love!.

Piano or guitar?  I wanted to learn to play our piano.  Three of the kids did.  But my first love is the guitar.  I played that for quite a few years.

Current longing?  I'm starting to long for a lot of foods, Tbone steaks with crisp fat, etc.

Current disappointment?  That my scars aren't heart shaped?  They will just be dimpled and that's ok. hehe

Current annoyance?  I'm not annoyed in the least.  I'm home and feeling like a tiger again.

Last thing you ate?  Cereal and a banana.

Last thing you bought?  I bought a new used book from an Amazon seller. Yay books!

Pick a lyric, any lyric or a song... Here's my ear worm for the hospital stay.  Billy Holliday signing, "I'll Be Seeing You"  I watched a movie with it in the sound track, along by the one sung by Jimmy Duranti.  It stayed with me for a week til some trippy meds chased it out!

Pick a movie quote..  "Angels are the only ones got the time to help."  Milagro Beanfield War Coyote Angel.

  2. I would love to play the guitar, or the piano for that matter, but I just haven't the knack for them. I'll stick with knitting. ;-)

    1. Oh knitting is so great! And, if you sing a little, you are using the very first instrument, you know. :o) I need to get back to knitting. I've wasted so much time not knitting - a whole winter!
